more painful than most

lol

The 12 picture meme.
I apologize to my fellow blogger that I stole this from - if I remembered who you were I'd give you credit and all. It just looked like a fun one, so I thought I'd try it. :)

Okay, so to participate you need 12 pics of yourself, the more expressions the better - and at least one (*gulp*) full length shot. I grabbed K & we went outside for the last few minutes of sunlight today and these were what we grabbed.

K - here are the questions that went with this...

Looking at the group of pictures as a whole, what stands out to you the most?
That my camera's light meter is inconsistent. :p
Which picture do you like the most?
Um, hmmm... I'm going to cheat & add a 13th shot to answer this. I took the first shot, cropped it a tad blew it out a bit & turned it black & white. I like how that turned out. If I can't cheat like that then probably the 10th one. I think I maybe look the skinniest there.
Which is your least favorite?
Duh. The full length shot. Oh, and the 3/4 shot above it where I can so totally see how uncomfortable I am when she's obviously taking more than head & shoulders. Yeah, so retarded. lol Numbers 4 & 5. *shudders*
In which picture do you think you look the most like yourself? Why?
Probably the 8th. I have no clue why. Well, I kinda do - I look the most like my younger self there if that makes sense. Not sure what it is, but yeah.
Ask someone close to you which shot looks the most like you.
Brandon says the 6th.
Were the previous 2 answers the same?
No.
In which picture do you feel you look the happiest?
Hmmm... The ones where I'm holding back a real smile - the 7th & 8th.
Which one makes you the happiest?
The 13th, because I played & like the result.
Were the previous 2 answers the same?
Ha. No, because I cheated & added the 13th. Rawr.
If you met this person today, what would your first impression be?
In a few I look like the goof that I am. I need my bangs cut. Nice shirt. :)
Do you think you would you like him/her?
I don't think I look non-likeable, so yeah I'd like me. I'd try to make me smile I think. lol Yeah, I'd totally try to get this person to smile more.
Do you think these pictures portray the real you?
Well, it is the real me, so I guess so?!
Did you learn anything about yourself from this exercise?
I need to smile more in front of the camera, and maybe not do retarded stuff with my hands & face when people zoom out!? lol

Love the pictures, April. I know you don't believe me, but I think it's very rare to get a bad photo of you. So pretty!
